The date depends on the surgeon's schedule, time available in the operating room, how many people are queued up in front of you, etc.

From my approval to my date was about 6 months due to surgeon's schedule. That's uncommon (to wait so long) but every surgeon, hospital, program, insurance is different.

Regardless of how long (or short) it takes, don't go back to old habits. Keep moving forward with your good habits, meal plan, etc and you'll do great!

  Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

    Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

    Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
